A sick little boy....

Blake has had a low grade fever for a week and had two very restless nights so I finally decided enough is enough and took him to the doctor yesterday morning. When his fever started a week ago I thought it was his teeth bothering him but after the two bad nights I knew it was something more. The doctor checked his ears first but found no ear infection -good news. Then he checked his throat - bad news, Blake had toncilitis! I didn't even think it could be his throat! So now we are on antibiotics and hopefully in a couple days he'll be over it. Already today he's much happier and even slept better last night.



As part of the normal routine at the doctor they weighed Blake. I was shocked to learn his is 23 lbs and 13 oz! What a big boy! He's already bigger than Lauren was at a year!




Blake had a first yesterday afternoon when he finally rolled from his tummy to his back. He's been rolling back to belly for a while now and is even sleeping on his belly now. However the tummy to back has been difficult for him! He finally got it yesterday! He rolled all around our hearth room making a big radius. No more laying him just anywhere, he can move now to where he wants to be!

Lauren has been such a sweetheart with her little brother being sick. She's been very concerned and is kissing his feet now to make sure she doesn't get it. Since it was a nice day outside we went out and flew her kite and petted the neighbors dogs. She had lots of fun! She's begging for a dog so we're going to have to give in soon and get her one.
